The power of mumsnet (LOL) Does anybody know anything about

[paros]

Hampton Court House school . My boss is thinking of sending her chld there and has asked me to find out anything I can about the school.(other than what is put in the school perspectus (sp) ) I was thinking of going on the teachers webb site (TES ? ) has anybody got any other ideas . TIA.

post this in Education?

You can read their latest report on the Ofsted website but it's down at the moment.

Thanks but I wanted to see if anybody knew anyone that went there .Or even better that their child went there TIA

still, might be worth cross-posting to the Education board rather than in Childminders...

Lol I am putting it on alot of places because I believe in the power of mumsnet . Someone must know someone that goes there .

Our sons starts there in january when he will be 3.5. have you read the ofsted report on their website ? We been to three open days and their school fete as well as a one to one tour. We love the place - but I think it is like marmite, you love it or hate it. certainly lots of people call it whacky but thats what appeals to me.

Thanks mousemole . My boss told me that they had expanded so much recently that they didnt have the correct staff for the job as it were and also some of the staff wernt vetted properly . IYSWIM . But and a big but she really liked the school and so did I by what she told me about it so hope fully things will be explained clearer

meant to say this wouldnt happen untill next year when her child is 11 .

I think it has beeen very popular. I think all staff are well vetted but some people hired don't have teaching backgrounds. That doesn't bother me too much. As my son is so young I am going to suck it and see. Its either going to be great or a disaster but I want to give it a go !

Thanks MM
